Another change in vector output for 6.1 is that IDL text objects are drawn
with the appropriate text primitives, instead of a set of solid triangles.
It is possible that there's a problem with using these primitives with
perspective projections. One can use the VECT_TEXT_RENDER_METHOD keyword on
the IDLgrClipboard::Draw method or IDLgrPrinter::Draw method to force the
output back to triangles. It may help.
